"Saved By The Bell" reboot adds transgender actress Josie Totah in lead role

The new series takes a look at Bayside High after an influx of students arrive from low-income schools that were closed by California Governor Zack Morris, formerly played by Mark-Paul Gosselaar, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

Totah, 18, who announced she is transgender in a 2018 Time magazine essay, has appeared in the Mindy Kaling-produced "Champions," Disney Channel's "Jessie," and Marvel's "Spider-Man: Homecoming." She most recently had a recurring role in Netflix's "No Good Nick."
